Louis Tomlinson is one-fifth of the boy band One Direction and was playing in a charity soccer game this weekend. The game was to honor former Celtic and Aston Villa player Stiliyan Petrov who abruptly ended his career after being diagnosed with leukemia.

Aston Villa striker Gabriel Agbonlahor runs into Tomlinson and he falls to the ground where he stays there for a bit and limps as he gets up. Apparently he vomited as he got to the side line.

We’ll see if he gets invited to or accepts any future charity soccer game invites after this fiasco.

Via Daily Dot:

"Tomlinson, who wore “1D” as his shirt number, dusted himself off, but limped off the field and vomited when he reached the sidelines."

Deadspin found several tweets threatening Agbonlahor for the play.
